The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), has scheduled an annual preventive maintenance of its Effurun 132/33kV Transmission Substation on Wednesday and Thursday, October 28th and 29th, 2026, from 10:00am to 3:00pm daily.
The TCN says the maintenance is necessary to enable EPC Contractors safely commission the SERGI fire protection system on the 100MVA 132/33kV Transformer (T2) 3EFRTR2. Consequently, Benin Electricity Distribution Company (BEDC) 33kV feeders, including Refinery 1 & 2, Effurun, PSLM, and Warri, will experience a brief power interruption of approximately 20 minutes to allow TCN engineers carry out essential switching operations.
